The Best Green Curry in Carpinteria! Lao Thai is an absolute gem! I just had their Green Curry, and the flavors are incredibly authentic and fresh. You can taste the quality and care in every bite—seriously delicious! Beyond the fantastic food, the service was so kind and friendly. I appreciated the warm welcome and will definitely be back to explore the rest of the menu! Five stars!

Now this is a gem! Small family run Thai restaurant in Carpinteria. We came in for dinner with voracious appetites after an evening at the beach. Everything was cooked with care to perfection. We had the Tom Kha soup and the Laarb followed my Pad See eew and Drunken Noodles. The flavors and spice were perfectly balanced. Would definitely Do Over !!!

BEST THAI RESTAURANT IN SANTA BARBARA COUNTY!!! My husband I are either done in or get takeout from here an avg of 1-2 times a week. It is our favorite spot! Super cozy when eating there, and you must order their ginger tea! It’s unreal. Family run and they could not be more wonderful! The food is absolutely incredible, and has safe gluten free food for people that are gf. You’ll be surprised just how amazing it is. Many people I know also claim this is the best Thai food in SB county. It’s unassuming from the outside but a MUST!!!

We've been to a lot of Thai restaurants and this one is very good. The pricing is reasonable, the portion sizes are fair, they hit on all the dishes with excellent flavor and taste while not being overly oily or salty. The pineapple rice comes in a cut-out pineapple and thus far every dish we've ever ordered has been really good! We've eaten here about 5-8 times and it has become the go-to Thai restaurant. The other Thai restaurant in town is also good but the service is slower, they make mistakes on the order and I don't think the food taste quite as good.
